The slate has been labeled as the "Working Families Slate" and the UAW Michigan Community Action Program (CAP) endorsement recommendations are the following in Wayne County:

You have time until election day to research the candidates, ballot inititatives, ballot proposals, etc. You may not agree with the endorsement recommendations of the UAW Region 1 Community Action Program(CAP), but make your voice heard and cast your vote on August 3, 2010. The endorsements and recommendations were announced to highlight and show support of the candidates in which the UAW CAP felt were the candidates that could be counted on to stand up for working families and retirees.

When you go to the polls, remember the party of "NO". They say no to extending unemployment benefits, they say not to the economic stimulus, they say no to health care reform, they say no to Supreme Court nominations, they say no to a middle class tax cut but an extension of tax breaks to the rich. All they seem no do is halt momentum and progress. They, the Republicans, just don't relate to the working class. Many of them are career politicans and have forgot the middle class or those who may face struggle or difficult times. With the trying times that we face in Michigan, the last thing we want is to be led by Republicans. Vote for Virg Bernero for Governor.
